in the right-hand corner is Indianapolis in her

Washington street on the south side is shown,
beginning with three-story building, with an
oval sign q post in front and horse block.
That was the hotel, and stood on the site now

ST. LOUIS, May 21.-Quite furry and con-

printed. DR.. Farris. of ST. Louis. the prema-

he got quite warm over it, but a correction was

deserter. This method would doubtless
prevent. a great deal of dcsertion, but it is
revolving to think of branding human beings
who are not guilty of crime, just as the vest
err cowboy brands cattle.
While it is called branding, it really is not
the use Of a redhot iron upon the flesh. The
usual method of branding is really tattooing.
Instruments similar to the hypodermic
syfinge are used to prick the flesh full of
little punctures, over which India ink, salt
petre or gunpowder is rubbed. This makes
an ,indelibie Black mark, which nothing short
OF the surgeons; knife can remove. 1t has
always been customary to brand d~eserters in
France and England, but it never has been in
the United States. Some effort was made
years ago to have deserters from the navy
branded, but it was not successful The Brit
ishldeserter is now branded two inches below
the left armpit with a black d an inch long.
He used to receive a d about two inches long
on the left hip. The French deserter when
lconvicted receives in time of peace a big red
ID right oyer, the heart; in war, he receives a
bullet In the same place. Gen. Brngg's propo-
.sition is to tattoo in the middle of the back
Fbetsween the shoulder blades a black Dan
inch long. This is where the culprit cannot
get at it to turn the letter into some tattoced
device. such as sailors delight to put upon
